robbat2ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(...);
...
write lots of objects to the ObjectOutputStream.
...
get OutOfMemory exception :-(.
ObjectOutputStream keeps a record of every object it has seen, and thus prevents the object from being garbage-collected, even when you ARE done with it.

Date: 2005-03-30 09:51 pm (UTC)I've tried what you suggest, but the output that I get from it doesn't work with ObjectInputStream.
It expects a complete stream, and when you close the OutputStream, it writes a termination marker (and every after that gets ignored by the ObjectInputStream).
The hack I've taken up for the moment is to simply abuse the reset() function of ObjectInputStream after every N calls to write something. This really slows things down, but it's not production code, and speed isn't an issue for me.
